Kathmandu. Within hours of US President Donald Trump extending the ceasefire with Iran, a new series of tensions has started in the Strait of Hormuz. Although the announcement of the cease-fire was seen as a diplomatic success, in practice, Iran's actions targeting and seizing commercial ships in the waterway have further complicated regional security.
According to reports, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps attacked three ships in the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday. At the same time, two ships were seized and taken to the Iranian coast.
